The Top 10 Best Female Survivors of Horror Movies

It would seem that horror movies favor a female surviving the massacre. Perhaps it's childbirth. If we can handle that, we can handle a guy with an axe right? I have listed my 10 favorite female survivors from a horror massacre in no particular order. I will define their motivations and their skill set - what made them into such bia-tches in the end? I'll rank them on how they survived. I might even tell you who I identify with.

Hollow Earth Part 2: Potential Hollow Earth Civilizations

This is part 2 of a 2-part series on Hollow Earth. Yesterday's post was #1, exploring Hollow Earth concept and potential entrances. Today, we consider potential Hollow Earth civilizations.

Hollow Earth Part 1: Entrances to Hollow Earth

Admittedly, "Journey to the Center of the Earth" (the 1959 version based on the Jules Verne novel), is one of my favorite movies of all time. As a kid, I could watch it every time it came on and now I own it on disk, so I can see it endlessly! 

Diverse Cultures Across the Globe With Similar Petroglyph Images

Fremont Indian State Park, Utah

Chaco Canyon, New Mexico

Across the world, ancient art on rock walls teaches us much about the priorities of the ancient people in their day to day lives and spirituality. But what do we make of cultures that had no contact when they portray the same images on their rock walls that are not everyday items one encounters like wildlife and water? Let's have a look at some unusual similarities from disparate cultures. 

Why Caves Might Be More Haunted Than Buildings

Caves are amazing vessels. They are surrounded by stone and metals, often times created by volcanic activity, disrupted by seismic activity, utilized to provide shelter, to stash treasures and hide away to die. If a home can be haunted, can a cave be even more so? And why?

**This post is a special guest posting by a researcher I greatly respect, David Claerr.**

Among all the reported sightings and contacts between humans and the legendary Sasquatch, also called Bigfoot, one of the most fascinating and lively documented cases occurred in the community of Lake Worth, just to the northwest of Fort Worth, Texas. Not only did over a hundred people report seeing the creature, in some cases there were up to forty people who saw it at the same time and place, and among them were police officers who noted the episode in their official reports.

Zombie Cruise!

Vacations have pretty much reached the maximum capacity for entertainment for most of us. If you want to lie on a beach or read a book in a hammock, drink a fruity cocktail with an umbrella in it, there's hundreds of choices. But, what if you want your vacation to be a little more...thrilling?

We think of graveyards as a place to put our loved ones to rest, to attend funerals, and to visit and lay flowers on anniversaries, but there are some things you might not have done in a cemetery. You might want to give these a try! 

YouTube: Live Ghost Hunting in French Castle

Saturday, November 18: Link to run the live event: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3a0sxZ00y193_aKpbfWYpA/?sub_confirmation=1

Nico Augusto and Marianna of Paranormal Travel will investigate LIVE at the Fougeret castle, one of the most haunted places in Europe.

They will be accompanied by four people from their Youtube community for a unique experience.

The haunting will start by identifying the ghosts locations, then they will discover every part of the building in order to get in touch with the many ghosts at the Fougeret Castle.

For that they will use their senses, but also their material to detect signs of a paranormal activity.

Check out the first Live at 06:00 pm Paris time (11 am EST/10 am CST/9 am MST/8 am PST) and if you are curious you can follow them all night(day in America) as the investigators will sleep on site.

(LINK) Château de Fougeret is popular with ghost hunters and has even been on French TV several times. There are photos of ‘ghosts’ taken by the French Institute for Research and Experimentation on Spirits displayed in the living room and those who are brave enough to stay the night report seeing ghostly apparitions and voices telling them to go away and leave the castle in peace.

Spontaneous Psychic Communication Syndrome

Spontaneous psychic communication syndrome -
That's what I call it when you are suddenly thinking of someone for no reason at all, but they are in your mind and they won't leave... then you get an email/phone call/visit/text from them. 

Baffling Stone Spheres Found Around the World!

On an uninhabited inhospitable island in Russian waters only 900 km from the North Pole, are some very strange huge round spheres of stone. Josef Franz Land Island is a very curious place. Eighty five percent of the island is glacial year-round.

The Hunt For the Zodiac Killer

Tonight on History Channel - premiere of limited series

The Hunt for the Zodiac Killer

Limited Series Premiere, Tonight at 10/9c

Throughout the early 1960s and 1970s, the Zodiac Killer, one of history’s most famous unidentified serial murderers, terrorized America in a spree of heinous attacks, sending taunting letters and codes filled with bizarre and ancient symbols. This code has baffled some of the greatest minds in cryptology for over 50 years. HISTORY’s new nonfiction limited series, "The Hunt For The Zodiac Killer" opens up a new investigation into the mystery of this twisted serial assassin.

Dog-Faced Tribes and Reptoids in Ancient Art

Olmec carving 

Rather primitive features unrelated to the indigenous people around the world have been found in ancient art. What did these people encounter? What inspired these works? Perhaps ancient legends can help illuminate this mystery.

APR TEAM: The Mystery of Green Lights

Our paranormal investigation team runs into the occasional unexplained situation that lingers in the back of our minds as we ponder just what are the activating agents (always key in haunted locations) and the alleviating agents. With this knowledge in hand we can come to some conclusions about what is occurring and how. 

The mystery of the mining town green lights is one such puzzle - 

APR Cases: Feng Shui in Action in Haunted Locations

I am lucky to work with the most curious and amazing minds in the field of paranormal research, both my paranormal investigation team and the Bigfoot research team. We have an ongoing case with APR (Arizona Paranormal Research) that has me thinking about feng shui and the potential to work with this concept at an ongoing study at a mining town.

There are stone megaliths and then there are STONE MEGA-MEGALITHS! This post is about the most enormous and incomprehensible ones - Enjoy! 

Skyquakes: Weird Earth Sounds!

Malaysia

Strange sounds have been heard coming from the earth for as long as man can recall, but it seems that recently with our ability to record easily with cell phones, people are capturing more sounds and some can curl your hair as if the earth has skidded to a halt with a heavy load. Some people call them skyquakes and that's a good name for it. 

Terrors Hiding In Dark Forests

With autumn turning toward winter, it is in the human DNA to begin to imagine such things as twisted trees bared of their falling leaves and forests that take on a dark underworld feel.

"The Curse of Oak Island" Premiere Tonight!

Tonight on History Channel a new season of "The Curse of Oak Island" begins. 

Oak Island, a small wooded island just off the coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, is said to be the hiding place of a mysterious buried treasure. An ominous legend says that seven people must die in pursuit of the treasure before Oak Island will reveal her secrets. So far, the body count stands at six.

This series has been addictive, to say the least. It's the great dream to go out and hunt an infamous treasure and these men are putting all they have into it, blood, sweat, tears, time and cash. And, there's a little kid inside of each of us saying "oh boy! oh boy!" as we watch each hint fed to us through a well-executed reality show. 

Let's see what this season brings for Rick and Marty Lagina and all the hard workers helping make this happen. God bless the adventurers! 

Remember, if you can't have an adventure, at least follow one!

How "Jaws" and "The Goonies" Are Alike

My two favorite movies “The Goonies” and “Jaws” actually do it for me because they have many of the same elements. I can literally watch them once a month and not get sick of them. It wasn't until I watched them back to back one day that I realize...these two movies have much in common.

The Elements That Might Affect Hauntings

Aokigahara Forest at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan has taken on the tragic nickname of "Suicide Forest." Every year, hundreds of despondent people enter the forest, some of them camping for a time to put their heads in the right place to make the final desperate sacrifice of their mortal life in this beautiful natural setting. Such a location, for 14 square miles of size, and given the amounts of death should be quite haunted, but there are more reasons than just those for why it could be exceptionally haunted.

"Destination Truth" with Josh Gates was perhaps an all-time favorite along the lines of "In Search" of adoration for unexplained-loving audiences. I'm sharing my top 5 favorite episodes.
